Timmy notes another piece of half-witted environmental journalism, this time from Fiona Harvey of the FT. Ms Harvey notes that the Thames Barrier is being raised more often than in the past (climate change is the culprit of course), while apparently being ignorant of the fact that the south-east of England is sinking at 2.3mm per year.

Fiona Harvey has a degree in English Literature from Cambridge University.

It figures. One can't help but notice that there is something of a theme developing here?

Never mind the science, feel the empathy.
